Hello,
The firmware of my Galaxy S9 SM-G960F Dual Sim was last time updated in May 2018. I moved from Asia to UK, so that may be the reason. I to update it mainly for security reasons.
I have had a look at Sammobile and they offer updated versions of SM-G960F with my current carrier (Vodafone). Will that work? Is the same firmware for a single sim than a dual sim?
I will appreciate any additional recommendations whether I should update directly to Android Pie or stay in Oreo.
Thanks and regards,
Yes the G960F firmware works for the FD and DualSIM still works fine

I bought a A50 from ebay it was a SM-A505F/DS unlocked etc its a 4GB 128GB model
now i downloaded the xeu firmware for the UK and flashed via oden and everything flashed and it worked but when I try to check for updates it says processing failed when checking for updates
IT DOES NOT EVEN REGISTER TO THE UPDATE SERVER.
I TRIED WITH THE VODAFONE UK FIRMWARE O2 FIRMWARE BTU FIRMWARE AND XEU FIRMWARE ALL HAVE THE SAME ISSUE
this phone is an XSG model the firmware i used was from the SM-A505FN phone
why does everything work but updates anyone know how to resolve this.
Well if it does not work then you should keep your eye on the samsung's official galaxy a50 development page, and if update is available download the firmware and flash it with odin... Dont worry none of your data will be gone.. and btw if your bootloader is unlocked you wont get updates..

How do you expect it to work by flashing the wrong firmware? You’re flashing a NFC model firmware on a Non-NFC model. Download the desired region firmware for A505F, Remove your sim and flash the firm via Odin.

Hi, i have a samsung s9 running android 10 one ui 2.0 and want to upgrade to latest firmware One UI 2.1 or 2.5, but issue is the device is g960n but with a g960f firmware, if i want to update to latest firmware, OTA software update is showing error, do i flash g960n or g960f. Checking the 1234 code, device details are
Ap is g960f
Cp is g960n
Csc is g960f.
Please I'll appreciate if i can get a feedback as i will not want to brick the phone, and how was it possible to flash a g960f firmware on a g960n device. Odin mode on phone also shows device is g960n
I just got a galaxy s10+ from a friend who was on Tmoblie so it has the Tmoblie loading screen and apps. I would like to revert it back to the firmware CSC code XAA so I dont have to have the Tmoblie boot screen and apps. He didn't buy it from tmoblie its from an insurance company so I am pretty sure its unlocked. The app "Phone Info" says that Firmware's CSC code is XAA and the active one is TMB. I have tried to put in the *#272*IMEI# code into the phone but it just gives me an error code.
Is there anyway to revert it back to XAA without flashing the phone? Will I void the warranty if i flash the phone with official firmware? Also if I have to flash the phone where do I find XAA firmware as I only saw carrier firmware on SamMoblie.
Thanks for any help and very sorry if this has been posted a thousand times!
Also the phone model is SM-N975U / Galaxy Note10+
Device Type: d2q
Product Name: d2qsq
Bootloader Version: N975USQS6FUF1
CSC Version: N975UOYN6FUF1
Phone is on Android 11
I just flashed the phone and it all worked out. I used these threads to figure out the solution if anyone else is ever interested in how I solved this problem.
Note 10+ N975U carrier universal and unlocked models firmware.
Yep. I'm going to download the files just in case ,but wait a few days to see if anything happens.I'm curious if that was your issue all this time .

Odin Files/Guides For S21
Flashing S21 Ultra t-mobile branded to unlocked? Hi Everyone, I am a new samsung owner. I recently got s21 ultra t-mobile branded. It is now network unlocked. But i wanted to have a clean bloat free phone so wanted to have unlocked firmware. As i understand it, i need XAA G998-UA firmware...
forums.androidcentral.com
And I used this very kind user on Androidcentrals help. The context of my question is not needed but I basically asked if I was choosing the correct files.
"Yes use the firmware from frija , you will also need prince comsey patched Odin which download from XDA website, this will factory reset your device for first time , choose XAA as region with model number from unlocked version. (He is refering to the model number SM-N975U1) Put the device in download mode and make sure using a good cable and try 7zip to extract the firmware,odin,frija ...then after extract the the firmware you going take for files Cp/CSC,Bl,Ap and put in corresponding slots in odin and flash"
I feel like I've done a big door.
I work in a cell repair shop and we had an ATT unlocked S20 FE that came in and I liked it so I bought it.
Long story short. I did some reading that you can install the XAA software using patched Odin. This was essential because I'm on Tmobile and didnt get 5G on the ATT firmware.
Easy enough. The device now has 5G access on Tmobile, and identifies itself as SM-G781U1/DS in settings.
The issue I'm facing is now unlocking the bootloader. The XAA firmware doesn't have the option and I'm unable to flash back to ATT firmware without (auth) fail errors in Odin and 'Secure boot check fail: PIT' on download mode.
Here's what I've tried that's failed so far:
- show option using time/date change
- software updating (I do receive OTA)
- flashing stock ATT firmware
- flashing stock TMB firmware
- Fastboot oem unlock (command not found)
- fastboot getvar unlocked (unlocked: no)
I'm about out of ideas, could use some guidance on where to begin looking next, I really like the power of this phone and wanna see what custom roms bring.
Device stats:
Galaxy S20FE SM-G781U (with U1 XAA flash)
CSC: ATT
Build: G781U1UESAGWC7
Service provider info:
G781U1_OYM_TMB_13_0011

To be honest the custom rom screne for this phone is not so great yet. I imagine once the official support ends we will be getting some well developed custom roms.
As for the bootloader unlock issue, try using smartswitch to restore stock firmware, or try changing only the CSC if the firmware is multi-csc, the oem unlock option might reapper.
What kind of patched odin did you use to flash the XAA firmware? stock odin should be able to flash it too. As far as i am aware north american samsung phones do not offer oem unlock. The option probably dissapeared for good. There was etoken but since you are on android 13 i imagine the exploits have been already patched. You're basically stuck on XAA now. You can try using samkey to change the csc but i doubt that even that can help you oem unlock it.

for some reason Samsung doesn't allow bootloader unlocks in the US anymore. if as a phone repair guy you have the means force older firmware onto the device then you could pay someone to get an unlock token on the DL from a contact of theirs.
downgrading isn't something we can do at all hence me mentioning you maybe having access to resources others don't.
if you could get it onto the very first firmware you'd have a chance, if you can't there's no chance.
